hi,
when i open a session that has been moved to another disk in the album folder some picts don't show up anymore and there's a question mark.
this happened already other times and is going to put me in trouble (even if the files are already there, fortunately!)
any helps?
thanks in advance!
paolo

  Paolo,
  This happens because you've moved the images, simple as that. The last time the session was opened, it knew the files were available in location "A", when you launch the software again those files are nowhere to be found. You need to use the Tree-View in the Library tool to locate the files in location "B".

  thanks drew,
  but i'm wondering about a client that receive a session with album selections: you're telling me that those album don't work anymore or i wrongly understood?

  paolo, it is my understanding - which might need updating - that when an image in your session album is in a sub folder that is relative to the session, the link to the image (albums contain links to images, not the images) should remain intact when moving the entire session to a different location.
  When the folder that contains the image is not relative to session but absolute, the link will break when you move the session.
  
  You can check the session status of a folder from the Library tool, Info button at the bottom (select the image's folder in the Library).

  thanks paul to remind me that important detail, i totally forgot it!
  (i have to go back to user manual more often)
  the session folder fron today's work was set automatically to relative: i moved it to another location and the album folder works perfectly even in the new location, thanks again!

  too happy too early: today i checked a january work and in "choices" album there are some question marks, all from one subfolder. all subfolders are "relative to session", could be a little software bug?
